I didn't follow the development of the UI changes closely, but the
original patch proposal message said that --verbose would allow the
build log to be printed:

"For “guix package” the default behaviour is
to also hide all build output that does not announce progress (unless
“--verbose” is passed) and to let a spinner show progress instead."

Did that not make it into the final commit?
